The new hot-dip galvanizing line, to be completed during the first quarter of 2006, will produce coated steel for both exposed and unexposed automotive parts.
To keep up with the increasing demand for galvannealed sheet, the company has now formed a team to perform the engineering, evaluate technologies and seek bids to enhance the line to produce galvannealed. The additional galvannealed capacity will enable Mittal Steel to serve a wider spectrum of automotive applications.
The coating line will be rated at 500,000 tons a year, any portion of which could be produced as galvanized or galvannealed.
The company could start offering galvannealed steel from the line as early as the first quarter of 2007.
